“ I have completed my 'Self-Assessment Summary Statement' and ‘Statement of Accreditation’, both documents have been challenging to write, but the guidance in the handbook and your support and questions have been invaluable. I really feel that this process has taken me forward and overcome some obstacles, not least because of my ‘saturation’ in the activity.”G W, Accredited Facilitator

“ I found it such an open and abundant day, not just in terms of the constant supply of lovely food, but the spirit in which you inquired into our style and work. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you again. How exciting! ”S M, Accredited Facilitator

“ I thought I'd let you know that I've just got back from Singapore having done a session of training the trainers and facilitation skills with GlaxoSmith Kline staff with the support of two other subcontracted facilitators. I wanted you to know that I've enjoyed the experience and had some good learning experiences. There have also been a number of challenges, but there we go.”D T,
Accredited Facilitator

“ I wanted to take a moment to say how much I enjoyed meeting you, working with you, going through your process, learning from you and watching you at work. You have certainly provided me with much food for thought and I hope that we have the opportunity to meet again in the future. Wishing you every success with AOF.”C H,Oliver Wyman Consultancy

“ It was so good to meet you all and the other participants. Blimey! Monday feels like a long time ago. I got so much from the process and from the day. To have G, J and S there was great in terms of learning about group dynamics. I particularly appreciated that we had different learning styles and this helped me see more clearly my facilitation style and a desire to flex into other styles to be better understood.”S M,
Accredited Facilitator

“ Thank you for a really thorough process. Appreciation all round!.”J F,Accredited Facilitator

“ The AoF course was different. It was a journey as much about self as about facilitation and group dynamics. Several months on I remember more about the course and what I learnt than any other I have ever attended. The learning was so imbedded in the experience that it would be impossible to forget it or the other people present.”G B, Accredited Facilitator

“ I would thoroughly recommend training with the Association of Facilitators. Their material is thorough and extensively researched while their approach is an excellent mix of both practical and theoretical examples. Working with peer groups means your learning is supported and encouraged. I have learned to be a more confident and less “structured” facilitator and will continue to refer to my training notes and the AoF website throughout the coming years.”K D,
Community Development Worker, Farnham

“ I just wanted to send you both an e mail to personally thank you for opportunity for [Practitioner Accreditation] As you may have noticed I have also gained a huge amount personally from this, wow and thanks! ”R B, Developing Youth Practice

“ Thanks very much for the handout. What a fantastic couple of days yourself and Brian led! It was so helpful for me to be in a very different style of learning environment, which allows the assimilation of ideas and practice of skills as we go along.”A T, Accredited Facilitator

“ I am very proud to be accredited as a level 2 facilitator! Thanks for your feedback, which is so uplifting and so thought-provoking.”S AB, RSPB
